A University of Regina engineering class, focussed on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), is helping lay the groundwork for further collaborations between the U of R and Saskatchewan Polytechnic. The class, ENIN 495, teaches the theory, mechanics, construction and control of quadcopters, which are unmanned aerial vehicles. The technology for these small four-rotor helicopter flying machines is constantly changing, creating a demand for adaptive education programs to provide the training people need to get the edge they need when entering the work force.
